I quit smoking......

Friend of mine did the math and pointed out how much money I was spending on smokes. So I quit and used that extra cash to justify the jump to a new SS.

I LOVED my LS and will miss it but this thing is insane! The dual mode exhaust is worth every penny! Anyone on the ledge about buying a new Chevy soon should go do it now, I got 0% for 72 months.

Congrats. It's a beauty. Much better off smoking the rear tires than a pack of cigarettes.

Yup. I quit smoking cigarettes and only smoke the occasional cigar. Hobby changed to tinkering with my cars.

That math should have been obvious to you every time you bought a pack of smokes.

The one bad thing about this upgrade is that I've spent the entire day so far looking out the window at my new car instead of working. This day is just dragging on.

Congrats! But be careful on those cigars!!! I got hooked and damn, are they expensive! I go through cigars international now for all my orders. Pretty good...only got a few bad ones so far. But they have an ok selection at good prices.

Here's to hoping that the only smoking you'll do from now on will only be from the rear tires!
